March 7th and I still don't have this. Ridiculous. MRV will be out of beta before i even get to try it.

I haven't got it either

I live in Dutchess County, NY and have an H23-600...last updated on 10/1/2009. Anyone on the East Coast/NY area get this update as of yet?

Without checking in the "System" menu for a date and version...is there anyway to look at the receiver and see if an update was downloaded and installed? I was led to believe that there would be a light on the receiver that would come on, before turning it on for the first time after the update.

Thanks!

just hit Menu, it'll look different.

Any reports from anyone on their H23-600? I'm on the East Coast (upstate NY) and still NO update.

No H23 but I finally got mine over the weekend on my H21. Central Pennsylvania here.

Would checking with DirecTV technical support buy us anything, as far as seeing if they know what's going on with the H23-600s not updating as of yet?

The light deal was IF you have the round ring of lights turned OFF, when you get an update over night, you will notice that the Ring of lights will be back on after an update.

Just got this information from the DBS Talk forum...

"Read on D* tech forum that they are having trouble with the MRV on the H23s."

Guess we wait until this is remedied...

POSSIBLE GOOD NEWS...

I saw this posted over at DBS Talk...might be good news for those of us H23 owners that are still awaiting an update...

"My H23-600 had the older upgrade of 0x434d, 18 Dec 2009, checked it this morning, and it had an upgrade of 0x43a9, 4 May 2010 @ 3:14am. Haven't found any info on the latest upgrade? Everything seems to be working fine."

THAT IS GOOD NEWS for most us us here!

I hope that those of us on the East Coast see this soon. The above was an H23 in Idaho, so it "should" happen so...let's hope so!
